I have checked at least 4 GMAT PREPs' verbal sections and I found that GMAT PREP has a pattern in its question sequence: I mean the first question is SC, second is SC , third is SC ans so on which creates the below list.

Now please help me to answer these questions:

1. Is this the same pattern that you have seen in your PREP TEST?2. Is the actual test has the same pattern?

There is no specific order - the GMAT works from a question bank organized by difficulty level and types of questions. It will have a target # of questions for SC, CR and RC. Then it will randomly give you a question type - then if you get it right, you might get a more difficult question and can be randomly chosen between SC, CR and RC. If given RC, it will give it to you as a group - so several questions relevant to that passage. Then it will jump to SC/CR until the target # of such questions are reached.

Each GMAT Exam can be slightly different - but the target # of questions for each section will always be reached. The specific algorithm has never been released but it follows these guidelines.
